Dr.PAWPAW launched a series of Charm Balms that match natural-ingredient lip care products with accessorized packaging. The hero, multi-purpose Dr.PAWPAW Original Charm Balm with nourishing pawpaw fruit, soothing aloe vera, hydrating olive oil and moisturizing castor oil features a fruit-shaped keyring, while the brand's tinted Ultimate Red Charm Balm emphasizes the pop of color it provides with a charm in the shape of a full, red pair of lips—but the versatile balm can also be used on the cheeks and eyes.
Charms are everywhere right now, and people want ones that are as functional as they are fun. Dr.PAWPAW's collectibles keep essentials close, serve as style statements, and help consumers show off a brand they love.
